Mirzapur (Amazon Original) (Season 1) is of course a too violent set-up one & full of cuss words. at times it was laughable as the west have primarily F thing in their practice so as series/movies, but In India(Indian Subcontinent), just so much other than C. Even for Adults / 18+ way too much gaalis even though in that violent locality.

very aptly said. & that’s my prime take away on the same lines of my thought process. So felt good & in sync.

more detailed review:

On another aspect, if we bit try to compare this fiction set-up in the contemporary years whether the story fits well in the CM YogiAdityanath-Raj is quite doubtful especially the way even Special Police Officers fail miserably in doing encounter, rather they are themselves wiped out! That’s the story of the Season 1 of 9 episodes.

Bit felt awkward & too much tragedy as Bablu Pandit (Vikrant Massey)was so brutally murdered quite a big piece of his head being chopped off with the fierce bullet. Wondering why that character was murdered. & Vikrant even didn’t know what happens to his character in the end & had signed the script/role.

That Season 1 climax Reception Tragedy of course reminds whether it was just natural or inspired from Game of Thrones like Marriage Reception time elimination attempt. (GOT tragedy was an absolute bloodbath & so the revenge by Arya Stark.)

Guddu Pandit (Ali Fazal) stays alive despite being one of the prime targets.

Divyendu Sharma playing Munna Tripathi (the weak link heir of the Tripathi / Kaleen DonDom) reminds me of his typical weak/supporting character roles probably bit matching his perception personality / build, this one definitely rises from the dark & own failing, but how much the next season will tell.

Comparing with Netflix’s Sacred Games (which I have not seen though except trailer & some promoted/going-around clips) & heard / news, it’s not that much violent nor too revealing/open.

Any way, welcome to the Digital Age of such Series open at times uncensored scenes/ use of words / dialect / slangs.

Move on from Gangs of Wasseypur movie alone.

This was even different as only “BhaiyaaJii” is the most short-cut way to address not just Don but all Seniors/more-powerful in this Gang/Mafia World set-up. Even the CM is addressed so by a powerful/influential/close-hand MLA. But yes Kaleen Bhaiya, Munna Bhaiya, Guddu Bhaiya & so on are the addressing as well.

Yes, talk about equality / women rights, this one has that power though Still no woman in primary Core Leads (/ grown / evolved in this Season). So called Patriarchy system still rules.

I’m still searching that “शेरनी hunger & satisfaction thing on an Animal TV Channel” fact – was picked up at all from any such real TV Channel or just made up in the script/series alone. (Kulbhusan Kharbanda).

Talk about Dynasty, ya it’s in the Series. That Power War.

Of course the series starts with a casual & careless fun gun firing by a Don-Son Munna Tripathi of the Kaleen King of Mirzapur leads to events in fully forced with no practical option but to join the Gang for the two college going students one of them bright/topper sons of the Honest & Brave outright Lawyer PanditJi. Names are Guddu Pandit & Bablu Pandit.

The story also showcases the miserably failed murder attempt of a weak son Don onto his able father Don through his best friend Compounder & later on the advice of his sex-hungry (forcibly married) step mother, & then lesson from observation of the Power+Intelligence power house outsider 2Brothers Guddu (who was a Purvaanchal{Eastern UP} Body Builder aspirant but not crowned even though in power hands but not crowned as instructed by Kaleen Bhaiyaa) & Bablu Pandit (a bright Intelligent student) & plotting their murder as well, succeeding in killing Bablu as well.

The story is of the Power & the Fear business of the DonDom.

“The Gangs of Mirzapur (& Jonpur… & with & vs UP Police & Govt.)”

That’s the elaborate title we can say. else:

The DonDom

One reality also how a middle-class money-starved struggling wife (of an honest & true forthright Lawyer) & mother of 3 welcomes & enjoys the money & power influence & is happy with both his sons joining the Power of Mirzapur – The Don Kaleen Bhaiya.

Yes, one of the most relatable bang-on dialogue in this season 1 was:

हम बनाएँगे मिर्ज़ापुर को अमरीका।

हम बनाएँगे मिर्ज़ापुर को अमरीका।

गुड्डु & बबलू पंडित on not just reviving but increasing the gun/rifle/कट्टा sales in-loss business of Kaleen (Carpet) King अखंडानंद त्रिपाठी. Attack में Gun, Defence में भी Gun! Very much the story of the open legal/license based self-suicide gun culture of the USA/Govt across generations.
